| sivang | Pygi: working on home user backup, I am not working on uprestore (the resoration module) as it shares most of the GUI characteristics with upbackup, I just based it's class on the backup one, and 80% if the work is already done :) | 12:16 |

| Seveas | well, apparently it's not as easy :D | 12:27 |
| Pygi | Seveas: I have, but I didn't found the source | 12:27 |

| _ion | tonio: Yes. :-) | 12:27 |

| === sivang needs that for testing HUB | ||
| Tonio_ | Pygi: impossible, I have to type my password each time :) | 12:28 |

| _ion | tonio: Nope, use gpg-agent. | 12:28 |
| Seveas | sivang, after you finished: xhost - | 12:28 |
| sivang | Seveas: thank you | 12:28 |
| Pygi | Tonio_: then just make that the script doesnt work... we'll run it manually when needed | 12:28 |
| _ion | tonio: keychain makes it easy. | 12:28 |
| Seveas | xhost + sets it WIDE open | 12:28 |
| Tonio_ | _ion: will check | 12:28 |
| Pygi | Seveas: where can I find more info on that falcon of urs? ^_^ | 12:28 |
| Seveas | Pygi, kaarsemaker.net/software or dimply my wikipage | 12:29 |
| _ion | Insert the proper keychain lines to ~/.xinitrc and ~/.yourshellrc, and it starts ssh-agent and gpg-agent automatically and configures your environment. | 12:29 |

| Tonio_ | i'm hosting many different thigs on it, so I don't wan to install too many stuff :) | 12:38 |
| Seveas | Tonio_, falcon is a small script, with very little dependencies | 12:39 |
| Tonio_ | just need to automate that release.gpg generation | 12:39 |
| Pygi | Tonio_: ah,k, we can just leave it as is | 12:39 |
| Tonio_ | Seveas: okay, I'll have a look then | 12:39 |
| Seveas | Tonio_, and it does gpg-signing for you ;) | 12:39 |
| _ion | You don't need to install falcon to the web server, you can use it your local machine and make it upload stuff to the public repo. | 12:39 |
| Pygi | Tonio_: perhaps we can work later today on that? | 12:39 |

| Tonio_ | Seveas: that's why :) | 12:45 |
| Seveas | Pygi, not yet decided, somewhere the coming week | 12:45 |

| _ion | It's easy enough with gpg-agent, and _much_ more secure. | 01:06 |
| Tonio_ | Seveas: okay, but that means I will have to change the key, and now many people are using the repo, thant's not possible | 01:07 |

| stratus | ajmitch, hey fine? | 01:20 |
| ajmitch | _ion: so you basically replaced all the packaging for nm? | 01:20 |

| pitti | desrt: what's that about? | 07:42 |
| desrt | pitti; why do we advertise our exact version number in a way that makes it extremely easy to scan for possible known vulns in particular versions? | 07:42 |
| pitti | desrt: ah, you mean the ID string at negotiation | 07:42 |
| desrt | pitti; yes. | 07:43 |
| pitti | no idea TBH | 07:43 |
| desrt | pitti; why not send as little information as possible to not violate protocol | 07:43 |
| desrt | probably something like SSH-2.0-foo | 07:43 |
| desrt | k. i'll file a bug then | 07:43 |
| infinity | desrt: It's a catch-22, we've had administrators tell us that it's valuable to have as much info as possible, so they can run scans on their networks without logging in (or having to have accounts) | 07:44 |
| infinity | And the bug has been filed. Repeatedly. Over several years. | 07:44 |
| desrt | then i won't :) | 07:44 |
| desrt | just seems really foolish to announce on connect the equiv of "these exploits will work on me...." | 07:45 |
| fabbione | desrt: it would work anyway.. | 07:45 |
| desrt | since anyone scanning probably has a list of version#->exploits | 07:45 |
| fabbione | security trough obscurity is almost pointless | 07:45 |
| desrt | fabbione; not if the exploits require any degree of effort | 07:45 |
| pitti | desrt: what would keep them from just trying? | 07:45 |
| fabbione | desrt: if they really want to open it, they will just try | 07:45 |

| desrt | pitti; opening a tcp connection and looking is very fast | 07:45 |
| infinity | desrt: In theory, that's scary, in practice, I've never seen a worm that actually does version number checks, they all just bang you with exploits until one works. | 07:45 |
| desrt | pitti; trying to exploit a flaw may take much longer | 07:45 |
| fabbione | desrt: not really... | 07:46 |
| desrt | pitti; if i know anything about why people get hax0red these days it's because of scanning | 07:46 |
| desrt | nobody targets _you_. they just scan... | 07:46 |
| fabbione | desrt: not true either | 07:46 |
| infinity | Yes, they scan ports, again, I've never seen anyone target based on version. | 07:46 |
| G0SUB | fabbione: ++ | 07:46 |
| desrt | muh. | 07:47 |
| infinity | (And they definitely scan known ports, since I've seen two machines on a network with identical versions of the same software, one on a standard port, one non-standard, and the non-standard one was left alone) | 07:47 |
| infinity | But none of this will keep someone out who really WANTS in. | 07:47 |
| desrt | i guess my argument is basically "there's no good reason to have the info there and a good reason (even if it is small) not to" | 07:47 |
| infinity | However, the odds of kiddies building version support into tools designed to attempt to penetrate thousand of machines seems ridiculous. | 07:47 |
| pitti | infinity: same for me; I moved ssh to another port to avoid brute force scans (which I had to endure for about a week) | 07:47 |
| desrt | infinity; this is just my point... nobody really WANTS in anymore | 07:48 |
| infinity | It's like worrying that spammers will add X-Debbugs headers to their mail, cause they really want to spam the Debian BTS, when they just want to spam SOMEONE. | 07:48 |
| desrt | infinity; people want to collect the most shell accounts in the least time | 07:48 |
| infinity | desrt: Right, and the road to "most shell in least time" isn't targetting specific versions, it's hammering everything you have at everyone. | 07:48 |
| desrt | eh | 07:49 |

| desrt | if i had a sploit that took manual intervention to properly use i'd run a version scanner to get me a list of all hosts that were vulnerable | 07:49 |
| infinity | Why go to effort of researching who has what vulns and coding that in your scan tool when you can just attack every port 22 you can find? | 07:49 |
| desrt | then i'd attack them | 07:49 |
| infinity | If you have an exploit that requires manual intervention, you're already beyond the average script kiddies, mind. | 07:50 |
| fabbione | infinity: desrt is a kernel hacker.. he can't be as good as a script kiddie... | 07:50 |
| desrt | it isn't about script kiddies | 07:50 |
| === desrt is _not_ a kernel hacker :p | ||
| infinity | desrt: Of course it is. You're discussing mass scanning, automation, this isn't about anyone with talent. :) | 07:51 |
| desrt | infinity; i'm talking about spammers, etc | 07:51 |
| na7e | anyone here who is decent with gimp wanna make a usplash image for me, possibly for an upcoming offshoot of ubuntu? | 07:51 |
| desrt | infinity; people with real reasons to control machines on other people's networks | 07:51 |
| infinity | (Okay, people with talent will occasionally write the tools, but not use them. And when writing a tool for mass dissemination, you're not going to hardcode applicatoin version numbers for stuff that has a 10 minute life on the internet before people upgrade) | 07:51 |

| infinity | desrt: It's my experience that "spammers" and "kiddies" fit the same category, as far as how they get in. :) | 07:52 |
| desrt | infinity; this is the _entire_ point | 07:52 |

| infinity | desrt: If you're running 3.4pl1 (and that's known to have a root hole, say), people with version scanners will attack you ANYWAY. The addition of -3debian4.1 or something doesn't make you MORE vulnerable. :) | 07:58 |
| desrt | i'm advocating the removal of all version information | 07:58 |
| infinity | 3.4pl1 PLUS PATCHES! That one's totally more hackworthy than plan upstream 3.4pl1 | 07:59 |
| desrt | not just debian stuff | 07:59 |

| infinity | <shrug>.. There's a patch in the bug I aimed you at. Revise it to allow faking the version, and see if Kamion thinks it's not a hideous idea. I'm assuming he still won't like it unless upstream's all over the idea. | 08:00 |
| desrt | upstream doesn't like the idea | 08:00 |
| infinity | (The patch currently is for minimising version infO) | 08:00 |
| infinity | I know upstream doesn't like the idea. | 08:00 |
| desrt | another email here says that they have workarounds coded in the client to deal with certain server versions | 08:00 |
| infinity | Yes, they do. | 08:00 |
| infinity | Clients and servers both have workarounds to deal with each others' brokennes.. | 08:01 |

| Kamion | any gtk/pygtk experts around? I need to create a multi-column list, which is conceptually just one column of data but which is displayed as multiple columns just in order to make better use of horizontal screen space | 11:48 |
| === ompaul [n=ompaul@ubuntu/member/ompaul] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | ideally I'd be able to specify the preferred size / aspect ratio of the resulting view | 11:49 |
| Kamion | as far as I can see GtkTreeView doesn't offer this natively, although it might be possible to build it out of the various building blocks provided ... | 11:50 |
| Keybuk | a multi-column list would suggest GtkTreeView | 11:51 |
| Kamion | see my previous comment | 11:51 |
| Keybuk | which has the most evil API that satan ever spawned | 11:51 |
| Keybuk | I'm not sure what you mean by "doesn't offer this natively" though | 11:51 |
| seb128 | GtkTreeView is to make different columns in a same table | 11:51 |
| seb128 | not different tables placed side by side for the same model | 11:51 |
| Kamion | GtkTreeView's existing column interface is designed for rows of data which each have several attributes presented as columns | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | not necessarily | 11:52 |
| Kamion | it's not designed to dynamically rewrap a single-column list of data into columns | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | you can present the same attribute in multiple columns different ways | 11:52 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: if you know how, then that is my question | 11:52 |
| seb128 | Kamion: I don't know any way to do what you want to do, I guess you will have to split the model and make different TreeView for every model or something like that | 11:52 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: if you want to do what I think you want to do, then I know how | 11:53 |
| Keybuk | but you're not being clear enough | 11:53 |

| Keybuk | oh, I see what you mean | 11:53 |
| Keybuk | that's evil | 11:53 |
| Kamion | displaying it in a single column makes poor use of horizontal screen space | 11:53 |
| seb128 | Keybuk: he wants to do | column1 || column1 next items || column 1 ....| | 11:53 |
| Kamion | I want to wrap this column vertically, newspaper-style | 11:53 |
| Keybuk | yeah, I understand now | 11:54 |
| Keybuk | no, you can't do that easilyt | 11:54 |
| Kamion | can I retain a gtk expert to write a widget to do it for me? | 11:54 |
| Kamion | it looks to me as if the various pieces of the treeview interface are separated enough that one could write a replacement for just GtkTreeViewColumn or something that would source all the data from a single list | 11:55 |

| Kamion | lots of treeviews as seb128 suggests *might* be possible but it seems to me that trying to make that scroll neatly would be difficult, and making it keyboard-navigable would also be awkward | 11:57 |
| seb128 | Kamion: maybe mvo has some good idea for that, but afaik there is no easy way to do what you are looking for :/ | 11:57 |
| Keybuk | yeah, scrolling and navigation would be the bitch | 11:57 |

| === Gman [n=gman@nwkea-socks-1.sun.com] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | because normal behaviour for horizontally-scrolled tables in UIs I've seen is to make the scrolling jump from cell to cell horizontally, not pan smoothly across | 11:58 |
| Kamion | seb128: right, not necessarily expecting there to be an easy way, but this is for espresso and I think it's one of the "please get a gtk expert to handle this" items that mdz wants me to get others to take care of | 11:59 |
| Kamion | I saw a reference to some WrapBox widgets in GIMP which somebody claimed might help | 11:59 |
| Keybuk | yeah, was just reading that one | 12:00 |
| Keybuk | that has an aspect-ratio propery too | 12:02 |
| Keybuk | GtkHWrapBox and GtkVWrapBox are the non-abstracts | 12:02 |
| Kamion | I haven't checked - can you select individual columns in a normal treeview? | 12:03 |

| Keybuk | Mithrandir: the cups "Add a printer" thing here uses the standard widget fwict | 01:32 |
| ogra | fabbione, pong | 01:32 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: the alternative, I suppose, is just to hardcode a bunch of columns in the calling code, given that the interface is pretty much fixed-size | 01:32 |
| Kamion | but that would break different font selections (e.g. accessibility) so is probably a non-starter | 01:33 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: it's just a single column list of models | 01:33 |
| Keybuk | tbh, I'd just use one column :) | 01:33 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: no, the manufacturer list | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: that's a drop-down here, not a list | 01:34 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: Mark explicitly asked me to stop doing that | 01:34 |
| Mithrandir | yes, and it's a horrible 3xN matrix. | 01:34 |
| Kamion | and I can see his point, the current UI is nasty | 01:34 |
| Keybuk | Kamion: yes, well, Mark isn't very good at user interface design | 01:34 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: in this case he's absolutely right | 01:35 |
| Keybuk | inventing a custom widget that behaves exactly the opposite to every other widget on the system is wrong | 01:35 |
| Kamion | if you fire up espresso and look at the language page, it *sucks* | 01:35 |
| Keybuk | Mithrandir: hmm, I see what you mean; they've just used a popup menu | 01:35 |
| Kamion | there's a huge pile of empty vertical space that there's no easy way to fill | 01:35 |
| Kamion | er, empty horizontal space | 01:35 |
| === Hirion [n=hirion@draugr.de] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | why not use the empty horizontal space to display an image of the keyboard layout currently highlighted? | 01:36 |
| Kamion | works for keyboard, what do you do for language? | 01:36 |
| Keybuk | in fact, almost exactly like the GNOME one does currently :) | 01:36 |
| Kamion | I'm not convinced that the GNOME one is the epitome of usability | 01:36 |
| Keybuk | no, the treeview on the left is too small | 01:37 |
| Keybuk | but having an image of the keyboard is damned useful, you can just scroll with the arrows and match it up | 01:37 |
| Mithrandir | Keybuk: no, we can't do that. We have no idea what the keyboard looks like. | 01:37 |
| Kamion | it forces you to scroll a great deal, and to know what your keyboard layout is called in order to have a hope of scrolling to roughly the right place | 01:37 |
| Kamion | oh yeah, plus what Mithrandir said due to the limitations of how we're handling keyboards in espresso at the moment | 01:37 |
| Kamion | (remember that the GNOME keyboard layout widget has the luxury of only having to select X keymaps) | 01:37 |
| Keybuk | *shrug* I still think it's better than inventing a sideways widget | 01:37 |
| Mithrandir | we're really forcing d-i to do stuff that it wasn't near being designed to do. | 01:38 |
| Kamion | that's not particularly the problem, and that can be fixed after dapper once we move to cxkb or whatever | 01:38 |

| Kinnison | Kamion: So if you have stuff for me for espresso, then go ahead, otherwise I believe I have the de-tabbing and stage X of Y to implement in espresso | 01:46 |

| Kamion | Kinnison: right, the breadcrumbs thing was what I was thinking of | 01:47 |
| Kamion | fabbione: stick the .orig.tar.gz in .., rebuild with -sa | 01:47 |
| fabbione | Kamion: isn't LP going to hate me for that?= | 01:48 |
| Kinnison | Kamion: I'll do that before I get to the g-p-m mails then | 01:48 |
| Kinnison | fabbione: Ensure it's a newer version too | 01:48 |

| Kamion | fabbione: why would it? | 01:48 |
| fabbione | Kinnison: newer as in upstream or debian/ubuntu? | 01:48 |
| Kinnison | the latter | 01:48 |
| fabbione | Kinnison: ok | 01:48 |
| fabbione | Kamion: dunno.. i never had to do it before | 01:48 |
| Kamion | "foo.tar.gz" != "foo.orig.tar.gz", which is all that matters | 01:48 |
| Kinnison | Kamion: because LP is a grouchy complaining crotchety youngling | 01:48 |

| Kamion | mdz: remember the talk at the UI sprint about wanting the language and keyboard selectors to be horizontally-scrolling tabular lists? | 03:31 |
| Kamion | mdz: we've been looking at that today, and it's more difficult than expected; getting the right scrolling, keyboard navigation, placement depending on fonts etc. semantics isn't possible with anything GTK gives us at the moment | 03:33 |
| Kamion | mdz: Keybuk estimates ballpark 2-3 days to write the widget; do we want it enough to have him spend that time? | 03:33 |
| mdz | Kamion: I'm not sure what you mean by horizontally-scrolling tabular lists | 03:34 |
| Kamion | mdz: having the list of languages etc. be vertically wrapped, newspaper-style | 03:34 |
| Kamion | oh, you weren't there on Friday | 03:35 |
| mdz | no | 03:35 |
| Kamion | the language and keyboard selectors are currently simple vertical lists | 03:35 |
| mdz | can you give me an example of something similar in another program? | 03:35 |
| Kamion | the problem with this is that it makes very poor use of screen space, and you end up with big empty spaces in the dialog | 03:35 |
| Keybuk | there is nothing similar in another program | 03:35 |
| Keybuk | the "closest" thing is the "Add Printer" "Manufacturer" drop-down ... like that, but as a horizontally-scrolling list box | 03:36 |
| mdz | oh, I see | 03:36 |
| mdz | you are talking about a multi-column layout | 03:36 |
| Kamion | sabdfl asked for this to be changed so that it wraps vertically, a bit like say the entries on the Windows start menu | 03:36 |
| Kamion | well, at least the start menu circa Windows 95 ;-) | 03:36 |
| Kamion | and you then scroll left/right in case not all the languages fit | 03:36 |
| mdz | right, I think I understand now | 03:37 |
| Kamion | that would allow the widget to take up more of the screen, and increase the chance that your language is immediately visible | 03:37 |
| mdz | since the request came from sabdfl, the question would be how badly he wants it | 03:37 |
| mdz | I don't think I can speak to that | 03:37 |
| Kamion | sabdfl: see the above discussion? | 03:37 |
| sabdfl | mdz: i'm watching | 03:37 |
| sabdfl | the discussion | 03:37 |
| sabdfl | don't have time to fix gtk on this one | 03:38 |
| sabdfl | so lets go with a smaller list and find a way to lay it out so it looks reasonable | 03:38 |
| sabdfl | this bits us in a couple of places | 03:38 |
| sabdfl | maybe ddlb? | 03:38 |
| Kamion | ddlb? | 03:38 |
| Keybuk | ddlb? | 03:38 |
| sabdfl | drop-down list box | 03:38 |
| sabdfl | i think that's what the mac os uses for, say, lists of countries | 03:38 |
| Kamion | drop-down felt pretty unpleasant to me when I tried it | 03:39 |
| Kamion | oem-config uses that | 03:39 |
| === Keybuk grabs a sandwich | ||
| Kamion | also, since the espresso window is fixed-size based on the largest of any of its pages, that would leave even more empty space on the screen | 03:39 |
| sabdfl | yeah, it's not right, but it has the advantage that it can use more of the screen when it's in use | 03:39 |
| Kamion | you'd have a tiny drop-down widget sitting in the middle of it :) | 03:39 |
| mdz | sabdfl: yes, that's what the OS X installer uses | 03:39 |
| sabdfl | i'm wondering if we can't combine that question with other questions | 03:40 |
| sabdfl | so we get more efficient use of space | 03:40 |
| Kamion | not at all easily, I'm afraid | 03:40 |
| sabdfl | but you sort of need that done before you can do anything | 03:40 |
| mdz | right | 03:40 |
| sabdfl | there is the space where people will type to confirm their keybord is set correctly | 03:40 |
| na7e | howdy sabdfl | 03:40 |
| sabdfl | hi na7e | 03:40 |
| Kamion | in order to do that we'd have to have multiple debconf backends running at once, which is sort of direly painful | 03:40 |
| sabdfl | sounds excruciating | 03:41 |
| sabdfl | pass on that then :-) | 03:41 |
| sabdfl | Kamion: this should not be a blocker for the next round, just do what works, we will prettify later | 03:41 |
| sabdfl | how is it coming along based on ui sprint feedback? | 03:41 |
| Kamion | although, er, well, maybe in theory, beginblock/endblock could help - but I think that's post-dapper | 03:41 |
| sabdfl | is this the last issue on your list? | 03:41 |

| Kamion | is gtk.Table really appropriate? I normally use it for laying out widgets in the same way I'd use a vbox/hbox | 03:50 |
| Kamion | with gtk.Table you'd still have to implement keyboard navigation, I'd expect | 03:50 |
| Kamion | and it would not be able to automatically reflow columns based on the available size | 03:50 |
| Kamion | tables are for very fixed layout, which this isn't really | 03:51 |
| jamesh | Kamion: do you have a web page or mockup of what you are after? | 03:51 |
| Kamion | jamesh: no, but think newspaper columns | 03:51 |
| Kamion | only with each line on each column being a choice from a liststore | 03:51 |
| Kamion | when it runs out of vertical space, it should wrap the list onto the next column and carry on | 03:52 |
| === TheMuso [n=luke@dsl-202-173-132-131.nsw.westnet.com.au] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Kamion | if it runs out of horizontal space, it should scroll | 03:52 |
| jamesh | Kamion: I don't think there is a ready made widget that'll do all of that | 03:53 |
| Kamion | that was indeed the general opinion. how hard would it be to write one? | 03:53 |
| jamesh | using a list store as a backend? | 03:54 |
| jamesh | probably hard | 03:54 |
| Kamion | doesn't have to be a list store | 03:55 |
| Kamion | I have a big list of strings | 03:55 |
| === mat__ [n=mat@l07v-213-44-95-59.d4.club-internet.fr] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| jamesh | there is a GtkWrapBox widget in gimp that does some of what you want | 03:56 |
| jamesh | it acts like a GtkBox but wraps when it runs out of space | 03:56 |
| Kamion | Keybuk looked at that but seemed to think the result was poor | 03:56 |
| jamesh | it has size allocation issues though | 03:56 |

| === janimo [n=jani@Home03207.cluj.astral.ro] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Keybuk | jamesh: the allocation issues were a bit of a problem; and also the fact it's not scrollable | 04:11 |
| Keybuk | so Colin would have to make sure the list of languages/keyboard layouts fit on one page | 04:11 |
| Keybuk | and then there's the question of what exactly you pack *into* the box; buttons not being that great | 04:12 |
| sabdfl | Kamion: http://www.sicem.biz/personal/lgs/projects/gtkgrid/view_screenshots | 04:15 |
| sabdfl | http://www.sicem.biz/personal/lgs/projects/gtkgrid/view_project | 04:15 |
| sabdfl | kiko says "this may not work today" | 04:15 |
| Keybuk | sabdfl: that looks like an ordinary GtkTreeView? | 04:15 |
| sabdfl | no, it's a GtkGrid | 04:16 |
| Kamion | sabdfl: looks like that doesn't actually wrap vertically, since cells are falling off the bottom and there's a vertical scrollbar | 04:16 |
| Keybuk | but I can't see what it's doing that GtkTreeView doesn't do | 04:16 |
| Kamion | which isn't what we want | 04:16 |
| sabdfl | kamion: we know in advance what language/keybd to put in what cell | 04:16 |
| Kamion | sorry, I guess I wasn't quite with-it when I said that a spreadsheet-style cell grid would be perfect - the requirement to wrap vertically makes it very different from a spreadsheet | 04:16 |
| sabdfl | we don't need it to figure that out dynamically | 04:17 |
| Kamion | sabdfl: but we don't know the font size | 04:17 |
| Kamion | which will be completely different if you're running with accessibility support turned on | 04:17 |
| Kamion | we can't just hardcode the vertical wrapping | 04:17 |
| sabdfl | we can say its a fixed number of vertical cells | 04:17 |
| Kamion | but it isn't | 04:17 |
| sabdfl | ok | 04:17 |
| Kamion | we can't figure this out in espresso | 04:17 |
| Kamion | we need the widget to do it based on its preferred size | 04:17 |
| Kamion | or available size, something like that | 04:17 |
| sabdfl | ok, np, keep going with select box or ddlb | 04:17 |
| Keybuk | and we can't figure out the height of the TreeView/Grid because the way GTK+ works with scrolling is to pack it inside a different widget that scrolls around | 04:18 |
| Kamion | Keybuk: could you have a look at turning the current widgets into drop-downs, and see how they look? | 04:19 |
| Kamion | since you said on Thursday that you wanted to help :) | 04:20 |
| Keybuk | this afternoon I'm going to try and get n-m up | 04:20 |
| Keybuk | then tomorrow I'll bug you how to get started on d-i :) | 04:20 |
| jamesh | Keybuk: when I talked with Owen about GtkWrapBox a few years back, the idea about how to handle size allocation sanely was to make the widget handle its own scrolling (set_scroll_adjustments(), etc) | 04:20 |
| Kamion | righto | 04:20 |
| Keybuk | I imagine I need some kind of test environment | 04:20 |
| Kamion | for espresso, I normally just download and boot a current live CD, rsync the source tree over from my laptop, build it on the live CD, install it, run it | 04:20 |
| Kamion | it's fairly easy to get going with that way, actually easier than d-i | 04:21 |
| Keybuk | ok | 04:21 |
| Mithrandir | as long as you don't need to run it through the whole process, just working in a normal system is fine | 04:25 |

| fabbione | so it gets to build gnome-power-manager | 05:12 |
| fabbione | and powermanagement-interface | 05:12 |
| fabbione | and it messes up | 05:12 |
| mdz | fabbione: I don't see why we need those in this case; we should be able to use Architecture: | 05:12 |
| fabbione | mdz: it doens't work.. infinity and Ihave been there already.. once in breezy in which i had to ask elmo to rm -rf sparc binaries and now to solve it the LP way.. | 05:13 |
| mdz | fabbione: can you explain to me why? I don't understand | 05:13 |
| fabbione | mdz: because we don't support Task per architecture and one of the packages in the game is arch: all | 05:14 |
| fabbione | mdz: so it ends up to be Task: ubuntu-desktop and pulls in stuff that is not installable on sparc | 05:14 |
| fabbione | mdz: so we need to stub that package.. more or less what's done on ppc | 05:14 |
| mdz | which package? | 05:14 |
| fabbione | powermanagement-interface | 05:14 |
| fabbione | at least it's one of them.. in breezy there were two | 05:14 |
| mdz | pmi has an implementation for ppc which uses pbbuttonsd, no? | 05:15 |
| mjg59 | Yes | 05:15 |
| fabbione | mdz: i said similar to ppc | 05:15 |
| === irvin [n=irvin@ubuntu/member/irvin] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | powermanagement-interface is not arch: all | 05:15 |
| mjg59 | mdz: Well, which replaces pbbuttonsd | 05:15 |
| fabbione | mdz: on x86/x86_64/ia64 Depends: acpi-$something | 05:15 |
| fabbione | mdz: that does not exists on sparc | 05:15 |
| fabbione | mdz: since that package gets builded, and can't be excluded, we need to stub it | 05:15 |
| mdz | fabbione: yes, but we don't try to install _i386.deb on sparc either :-) | 05:15 |
| fabbione | mdz: i did ask infinity NOT to build it | 05:16 |
| fabbione | and he said that it cannot be avoided | 05:16 |
| mdz | Architecture: i386 powerpc amd64 etc. should stop it from being built on sparc | 05:16 |
| fabbione | so it lands in the Task: stuff | 05:16 |
| fabbione | mdz: apparently it doesn't work that way.. i was told and i have to trust.. | 05:16 |
| fabbione | the same situation in breezy had to be fixed "manually" the hard way | 05:17 |
| Kinnison | mdz: I think I got told off for obeying the Architecture files | 05:17 |
| Kinnison | erm s/files/lines/ | 05:17 |
| Kinnison | It might need a P-a-s entry | 05:17 |
| mdz | Kinnison: the build will fail anyway if Architecture: doesn't match | 05:17 |
| mdz | no? | 05:17 |
| fabbione | and P-a-s seems to be half broken | 05:17 |
| mdz | doesn't sbuild check that? | 05:17 |
| === Amaranth [n=travis@ubuntu/member/amaranth] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| mdz | this certainly used to be the case pre-soyuz | 05:17 |
| Kinnison | mdz: I thought sbuild ignored it too | 05:17 |
| xhaker | i just installed dapper on a friends laptop, X failed to start "No Screen". i figured it out: the laptop has 2 graphic cards, the s3 was being detected, but the ati is the active one. it was wierd though, my laptop as 2 gfx card too, one is an intel the other ati too | 05:17 |
| Kinnison | mdz: It's possible sbuild checks it | 05:18 |
| mdz | fabbione: in breezy, a package with Architecture: i386 would not build on sparc. it would be attempted but would fail | 05:18 |
| === Kinnison guesses infinity and cprov need to look into this | ||
| xhaker | im going to see if similar reports exist on malone | 05:18 |
| mdz | it resulted in build logs which looked like this: | 05:18 |
| mdz | Fetched 10.5kB in 0s (0B/s) | 05:18 |
| mdz | Download complete and in download only mode | 05:18 |
| mdz | : powerpc not in arch list: i386 amd64 -- skipping | 05:18 |
| fabbione | mdz: and perhaps it still works in LP.. i don't know.. i am not an LP buildd admin and i was told that it is partially broken.. hence i report what i am told.. | 05:19 |

| Keybuk | remove it, should work | 06:43 |
| pitti | Keybuk: hm, it's actually migrated from postgresql-common to postgresql-client-common, so I can't fully remove it | 06:44 |

| pitti | Keybuk: dpkg complains even although the file isn't there any more (just in dpkg's database, of course, but not on disk) | 06:47 |
| pitti | Keybuk: my current solution is to Replace: all versions of postgresql-common | 06:47 |
| pitti | Keybuk: before it was Replaces: p-common (<< 45) | 06:47 |
| pitti | Keybuk: 357909 has a more complete log, btw | 06:49 |
| Keybuk | don't you mean <= 45 ? | 06:50 |
| pitti | Keybuk: 45 was the first version which introduced the package split | 06:50 |
| pitti | Keybuk: but the versioned Replaces is wrong anyway, I guess, since people might upgrade from 44 to 49 or so | 06:51 |
| pitti | Keybuk: so if p-common is already updated before p-client-common, it doesn't apply any more | 06:51 |
| Keybuk | oh right | 06:51 |
| Keybuk | and iwj's conffile patch breaks it? | 06:51 |
| pitti | the versioned conflict shoudl be fine | 06:51 |
| Keybuk | versioned replaces | 06:52 |
| pitti | Keybuk: no idea which patch is to blame; I just verified it on dapper and sid | 06:52 |

| Diziet | Hello. My ears are burning. | 06:52 |

| pitti | Hi Diziet | 06:52 |
| Keybuk | or from breezy, actually | 06:53 |
| Keybuk | that's more up to date | 06:53 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ah, good idea | 06:53 |
| Diziet | What's all this about a `standard conffile moving recipe' ? Is this some other hideous workaround for a dpkg bug ? | 06:54 |
| Diziet | It's nearly always a mistake to mess with a conffile in a maintainer script. | 06:54 |
| pitti | no, it's a hideous workaround for a hideous situation | 06:54 |
| Diziet | What hideous situation ? Conffiles should move from package to package just fine (assuming an appropriate Replaces, just like you need for any file movement). | 06:54 |
| pitti | Diziet: moving a conffile to anouther package is not really something dpkg supports, so preinst/postinst have to make sure that it'll happen without dpkg conffile questions | 06:55 |
| Keybuk | Diziet: that broke with the "obsolete" patch, afaict | 06:55 |
| Diziet | Did it ? Not in my tests. | 06:55 |
| Diziet | If it broke we should fix it dammit. | 06:55 |
| Keybuk | I've seen several bug reports with a conffile still being claimed by a later version of a package and causing an overwrite error with the package that Replaces it | 06:55 |
| Diziet | If someone can produce a test case that doesn't involve maintscript fiddling then I'll fix it. | 06:55 |
| pitti | Keybuk: ok, so I get the same breakage with breezy's dpkg | 06:55 |
| Keybuk | pitti: then I don't understand your bug | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | if package A has not got the conffile, and package B has it | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | then you won't get that overwrite error | 06:56 |
| pitti | well, I understand *part* of the bug | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | so either you're lying, and both A and B have the file, or something else is going on | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | dpkg: error processing /var/cache/apt/archives/postgresql-client-common_46_all.deb (--unpack): | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | trying to overwrite `/etc/postgresql-common/user_clusters', which is also in package postgresql-common | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | that means that postgresql-common has that conffile | 06:56 |
| Keybuk | and postgresql-client-common *does not* Replaces it | 06:57 |
| pitti | Keybuk: version 44 of p-common has, but not 45+ | 06:57 |
| Diziet | Maybe I should volunteer to fix all of these kinds of bugs. | 06:57 |
| Keybuk | ok, prove it; give me the Conffiles: bit from status :) | 06:57 |
| Diziet | pitti: I think what Keybuk means is that dpkg thinks the package still has it even though the new .deb doesn't. | 06:57 |
| pitti | right | 06:57 |
| Diziet | Would you like me to fix this problem for you ? I can do it tomorrow. (No time left today - I have to go in 15m0 | 06:58 |
| pitti | so, my /v/l/dpkg/status still shows p-common Version 44 | 06:58 |
| Keybuk | Diziet: that shouldn't matter, postgresql-client-common Replaces it | 06:58 |
| pitti | which of course has the file | 06:58 |
| pitti | however, the file is not in the system any more (it was rm'ed) | 06:58 |
| Diziet | Why was it rm'd ? | 06:58 |
| pitti | Diziet: in p-client-common's preinst | 06:58 |
| Diziet | Why, not what by. | 06:59 |
| Diziet | I'm quite serious. If you can tell me how to reproduce this bug I can fix it. | 06:59 |
| pitti | Diziet: I'm still trying to understand whether it's entirely my fault, or partly mine and partly dpkg's | 06:59 |
| pitti | so, let me explain step by step, unless I annoy you | 07:00 |
| === Gloubiboulga [n=gauvain@ubuntu/member/gloubiboulga] has joined #ubuntu-devel | ||
| Diziet | Sure, that's fine. | 07:00 |
| pitti | A := postgresql-common, B := postgresql-client-common | 07:00 |
| pitti | A 44 has the conffile, A 45 and 46 not | 07:00 |
| pitti | B Conflicts:/Replaces: A << 45 | 07:00 |
| pitti | (version 45 introduced the package split, and the conffile needs to move from A to B | 07:01 |
| pitti | now, A 44 is installed, and I dist-upgrade to 46 | 07:01 |
| Diziet | You mean B 46 C/R A << 45 ? | 07:01 |
| pitti | right | 07:01 |
| pitti | so, this part of my bug is a bit clear: if A gets upgraded first, then the Replaces << 45 doesn't apply any more | 07:02 |
| pitti | so what happens is: | 07:02 |
| Diziet | Right. And the conffile gets put into the weirdo orphan state. | 07:02 |
| Diziet | That's what my patch was for. | 07:02 |
| pitti | first, B's preinst removes the conffile, since it's unchanged | 07:02 |
| Diziet | (I'm assuming your maintscripts don't do anything.) | 07:02 |
| Diziet | Why????? | 07:02 |
| Diziet | Why would you mess with a conffile in the preinst ? | 07:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: it's part of the recipe | 07:03 |
| Diziet | Where did you get this recipe ? | 07:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: for the case that it has been modified | 07:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: from www.dpkg.org | 07:03 |
| pitti | Diziet: anyway, I think it doesn't really matter here | 07:03 |
| desrt | hm. the new dapper livecd format is much nicer | 07:03 |
| pitti | so then dpkg tries to unpack A 46, but that fails due to the conflict | 07:03 |
| pitti | although version 46 doesn't ship that conffile any more | 07:04 |
| Diziet | I think dpkg is right here and your maintscript is wrong. | 07:04 |
| Diziet | BICBW. | 07:04 |
| Diziet | www.dpkg.org is down so I can't even add a note to the page saying `iwj hates this'. | 07:04 |
| pitti | so, I see the combination of two different bugs/issues: | 07:04 |
| Diziet | Have you tried it without any `recipies' in the maintscripts ? | 07:04 |
| pitti | - dpkg still considers the conffile owned by A, even though the deb doesn't ship it; I know that there are reasons for that, though | 07:05 |
| Diziet | A is removed but not purged at this point. | 07:05 |
| pitti | - my Replaces: is wrong, since it's versioned | 07:05 |
| pitti | or, rather, it doesn't work here | 07:05 |
| pitti | an unversioned replaces: works fine | 07:05 |
| Diziet | Oh, I /see/. | 07:05 |
| pitti | so, dpkg doesn't take into account that B replaces A << 45 if I upgrade A from 44 to 46 | 07:06 |
| pitti | I mean, I'm not against adding an unversioned Replaces: | 07:06 |
| pitti | but it feels a bit ugly to me | 07:06 |
| Diziet | No, you probably shouldn't do that. | 07:06 |
| Diziet | I see the problem now. | 07:07 |
| Diziet | I think this is indeed a dpkg bug. | 07:07 |

| Burgwork | sabdfl, ping | 07:07 |

| Diziet | But I'll sleep on it and play with it tomorrow. | 07:08 |
| Diziet | All of these .debs are in the Ubuntu archive ? (Or were ?) | 07:08 |
| pitti | Diziet: great; I can provide you with some minimal test debs if you need | 07:08 |

| Diziet | Debian. OK, NP. | 07:09 |
| pitti | Diziet: they are tiny, I can send them to you if you want | 07:09 |
| Diziet | Yes, please. | 07:09 |
| pitti | Diziet: I can also strip them down to remove all the maintscripts stuff | 07:09 |
| Diziet | No, no, I can do that. | 07:09 |
| pitti | Diziet: ah, to answer this question: | 07:09 |
| Diziet | But send me the `source' if it's not just dpkg -x :-). | 07:09 |
| pitti | Diziet: if the conffile is modified, then we need the magic to avoid a dpkg conffile question | 07:09 |
| Diziet | Yes, dpkg is supposed to do that. That's what the orphan conffile thing is for. | 07:10 |
| Diziet | (I can't remember whether that patch made it into breezy. I suspect not.) | 07:10 |

| pitti_ | yay my network, sorry | 07:11 |
| pitti_ | <pitti> Diziet: otherwise, installing B on top of an orphaned modified conffile from A would trigger a question | 07:11 |
| Diziet | Is the conffile shipped in B different from the one in A ? | 07:12 |
| Diziet | Err. To me `modified conffile' means one locally modified by the admin. | 07:12 |
| Diziet | NB that removing it with `rm' (like in your preinst) counts as modifying it. | 07:12 |
| pitti | Diziet: the default file didn't change | 07:13 |
| pitti | Diziet: right, admin modified | 07:13 |
| pitti | Diziet: but the recipe works just equally well if the file changed between A and B | 07:14 |
| Diziet | Right. Then the orphan conffile stuff is supposed to work. | 07:14 |
| Diziet | As you can tell, I don't believe in this `recipe'. | 07:14 |

| zyga | dholbach: yes but before I do I'd like to ask you about something | 09:13 |
| zyga | I wanted to fix i18n bug that was basically missing ngettext but I ran into a problem I don't know how to solve | 09:13 |
| dholbach | zyga: you should file a bug on ontv, the upstream developer will follow up, he reads those bugs too | 09:14 |
| zyga | it basically reduces to the fact that I need a more generic ngettext that accepts a vector of msgid's and a vector of numbers to produce the correct result | 09:14 |
| dholbach | zyga: if not, you can subscribe him as well (johan@svedberg.com) | 09:14 |

| tepsipakki | slomo, kamion: what's the issue with gtkpod-aac? (i'm the packager) | 10:25 |
| Kamion | tepsipakki: it's GPL, but as I understand it it links to code that can't be distributed under the terms of the GPL | 10:25 |
| Kamion | note the GPL's admonition that if you cannot abide by a patent licence while distributing under the terms of the GPL, then you may not distribute it at all | 10:26 |
| Kamion | if there is no patent issue with stuff that gtkpod-aac links to, then that's fine, but then why is it in multiverse? | 10:26 |
| tepsipakki | Kamion: d'oh | 10:26 |
| Kamion | I assumed that if it was in multiverse, then there was a reason for it to be there | 10:26 |
| slomo_ | Kamion: libmp4 is in multiverse because it's source package (faad2) is in mutliverse | 10:27 |
| Kamion | oh, but libmp4 itself is free? | 10:27 |
| slomo_ | Kamion: and faad2 also builds libfaad2 which could break some patents | 10:27 |
| Kamion | sheesh, that's awkward | 10:27 |
| Kamion | really libmp4 ought to be in universe then but that causes closure issues | 10:27 |
| Kamion | ok, if libmp4 itself doesn't violate patents then I'll process gtkpod-aac binaries and stop bothering you+upstream :) | 10:28 |
| slomo_ | Kamion: should be free... i see no reason why anybody could patent such stuff... but as one can patent everything today i'm not sure | 10:28 |
| tepsipakki | oh, by the way.. there's a new version of gtkpod, and it is only a bugfix release :) | 10:28 |
